Why Monsoon Treks with HTC ?
Monsoon Treks:
Unlike regular treks, monsoon treks require a lot of expertise and experience with terrain. Understanding the terrain well comes with experience. HTC has been leading monsoon treks since 2011, and all our trek leaders are well-trained.
Backend Team:
HTC boasts a strong backend team to assist our trek leaders, ensuring that every event goes according to plan.
Core Team:
All our monsoon treks are meticulously designed by our core team, which has over 15 years of experience navigating the Sahyadri Terrain.
Safety:
We understand that many newcomers may be attracted by lower prices. However, it’s essential to remember that the best monsoon trek must be completed safely. This safety comes at a cost, as you’re choosing a registered organization rather than just following a monsoon Instagram page.
